All‑on‑4 Auburn: Fixed Full‑Arch Dental Implants in One Day
If you’re fed up with wobbly plates or facing the loss of multiple teeth, our Auburn team offers an All‑on‑4 solution that lets you walk out with a secure, natural‑looking smile—often in a single visit.
What Is the All‑on‑4 Concept?
“All‑on‑4” is a trademarked protocol developed by Nobel Biocare that uses four to six strategically angled implants in your jaw to support an entire arch of fixed replacement teeth. The back implants are tilted up to 45 ° so we can bypass sinus cavities or thin bone, meaning bone grafting is often unnecessary. A provisional bridge is attached the same day, so you leave with immediate function and confidence.
Why Choose All‑on‑4 Over Traditional Dentures or Conventional Implants?
Immediate function – enjoy soft foods on the very first night.
Fewer implants – only four to six fixtures per arch, reducing surgery time and cost.
Graft‑free for most patients – angled placement maximises existing bone.
Stable taste & speech – no acrylic palate covering the roof of your mouth.
Easy maintenance – brush like natural teeth; no nightly soaking.
High long‑term success – clinical studies report 93‑95 % implant survival at 10 years
